This is a bluebell sterling silver spoon ring with three delicate flowers, by Gorham at the top with a stunning flower bud at the end of the pattern to add to the elegant character. This spoon has wonderful flowing curves made popular by the Art Nouveau movement with a simple elegance to it. Made by Gorham, this spoon was originally manufactured in 1904, in their pattern called, "Portland".

Bluebells have many connotations including humility, gratitude, constancy, and everlasting love! Bluebells are also sometimes referred to as "Fairy thimbles," as they were conventionally thought to be the bell to ring to summon the world of fairies.

Flatware (well in this case "roundware") is the modern 5th wedding anniversary gift!

This is not a reproduction but an original piece.

Made of and stamped Sterling Silver, I put a brushed finish on these rings to even out the surface for a brilliant satin finish! Simply stunning with the patina we've added to help the design really pop! Other Free Finishing options available upon purchase, as seen in the photo.

Please Send me a message with purchase if you'd like to have your ring given a free re-finishing:1. Cloth Polishing- shiny but still vintage with a satin brush finish slightly visible and still dark in the crevices2. Re Brush- keep the satin brush finish, but make the patina/ tarnish lighter3. Combination of 1 & 2- Lighten the patina with a re Brush, then give it a cloth polish.

Dimensions: 17mm at widest point, tapers down to 4mm (medium width and sturdy)

SIZING: Choose Your Size! This ring is adjustable and can comfortably go up or down within the indicate sizes in the drop down. Since these rings are open ended, sizes are approximate, but very close to size listed or requested. There is one FREE re-sizing per ring for the life of the purchase! Or, if you message me, I can tell you how you can even adjust them a little in person for a perfect fit!

Photoed Ring Size: US 5.75 (ADJUSTABLE)

*** Remember, the wider the band of a ring the tighter the fit. Going up a quarter to a half size for a very wide ring is recommended.***

(Quick explanation of what a "Brush Finish" is: All of our spoons are annealed and cleaned in pickle before they are bent- thus removing all natural patina. After bending and rounding, we apply a rapid oxidation with liver of sulfur that makes the entire ring black. We then remove this patina on all of the raised surfaces of the spoon ring with a microfiber wheel brush. This gently removes the patina from the more ornate parts and on the inside of the ring by brushing it with the microfibers. This gives it a more satin finish that is easier to photo and looks more Vintage- Hence: Brush Finish)

Frequently Asked Questions

Sizing details

There are many ways we can help you find your ring size! We offer store credit of the entire product price of our ring sizers. Or I can give specific to your ring instructions on how to adjust at home after purchase. Just send us a message!

To ensure a good fit, make sure to measure your finger from knuckle to knuckle and compare it with the amount of mm indicated in the ---specs--- location of the listing. For wider rings like Spoon Rings, you typically want to go up about .25 in ring size and up to .5 size for the very wide designs.

Custom and personalized orders

Feel free to ask us about our Contact List for items you may see that are no longer in our store or if you have a specific pattern you'd like to request. We are always trying to restock and take custom orders all the time.
Due to the nature of our inventory, original spoons are sometimes hard to find and can take a few weeks, up to a couple of years depending on the pattern!
Casting reproductions take about 2 to 5 weeks, rush orders are available a well.

What if I Get My Ring and I want it More or Less Shiny or Oxidized?

We offer Free finishing! We brush finish all of our handmade rings, but do offer a few different finishing options before shipping:
- Cloth Polishing- shiny but still vintage with a satin brush finish slightly visible and still dark in the crevices
- Re Brush- keep the satin brush finish, but make the patina/ tarnish lighter
- Combination of 1 & 2- Lighten the patina with a re Brush, then give it a cloth polish.

And if you get your ring and you'd like an extra polish, or a bit less patina, or whatever you prefer, just send it on back and we'll make sure you love your ring with photos before we ship it back.

Does Your Shop Engrave Your Rings?

We do not offer engraving at this time, but we do remove them for free! The engravings you see on our rings are antique and original to the spoon we bent.
Sometimes we have been able to find spoons with specific engraved letters when requested! But this usually takes a few weeks to shop around for.

What if I get the Ring and It Doesn't Fit?

We do offer FREE re-sizing on all Spoonier SPOON ring orders- no expiration! Some rings may be able to be pinched down a little, but due to the soft Sterling we use, many tools used may scratch or dent the silver! So the best thing to do would be to send it back to us, or get it sized at a local jewelry store. Please message us for details.

What is a Brush Finish?

All of our spoons are annealed and cleaned in pickle before they are bent- thus removing most of if not all natural patina. After bending and rounding, we apply a rapid oxidation with liver of sulfur that makes the entire ring a graphite grey/black. We then remove this patina on all of the raised surfaces of the spoon ring with a microfiber wheel Brush. This gently removes the patina from the more ornate parts of the ring and the inside of the ring by brushing it with the microfibers. This gives it a more satin finish that is easier to photo and looks more Vintage- Hence: Brush Finish

How Long will it Take for My Order to Arrive (within the US)?

Wholesale availability
